Sto Corp., the innovative world leader in cladding, air barrier, coatings and restoration systems has introduced StoCoat X-black, a heat reflective exterior wall coating. StoCoat X-black reflects the sun’s near infrared light energy and lowers surface temperatures significantly compared to a house paint of the same color.

According to Product Manager, Rankin Jays, this energy-saving coating works well even in medium and darker colors. StoCoat X-black also minimizes color fading eliminating the need for frequent repainting. It can be applied on most claddings, including EIFS, stucco, concrete, wood, brick, or pre-painted surfaces, and is available in 570 colors.
